Time fragment

A time fragment is an item used to rank up the player's allies. They are obtained from enemies, who sometimes drop time fragments when defeated. They can also be bought in the in-game store by individual colors or special packs of different colors. There is a limit of 250 time fragments per color, so enemies won't drop time fragments of a color if it would cause the player to have more than the limit for fragments of that color. Occasionally there are promo codes that give away time fragments, time fragments obtained this way can suppress the limit as a result.

Colors

The color of time fragment an enemy could drop is typically determined by its own gem color; it will usually drop a time fragment of the same color. However, some enemies drop time fragments of a different color.

Color	Black	Blue	Green	Red	Yellow
Time Fragments

Each level in the game lists one or two colors of time fragments that could be dropped by enemies in that level. However, specific enemies on some levels can drop fragments of colors other than those listed. Pink fragments are never listed.

Pink fragments

Pink heart-shaped fragments can drop in any chapter of the main game beyond Chapter 1, as well as the last five levels of Chapter 1 (The Name of the Doctor: A Wound in Time onward). They will also occasionally drop from Season 8 levels.

Time Fragments

Rank 5 fragments are used to improve allies to rank 5 and they are found in the last ten levels of Chapter 3 (Meanwhile... onward); the later non-beta levels of the Fan Area (Jenny onward); Season 8 and Expert Levels. Omega and Rassilon fragment drops are listed but occasionally Infinity fragments will drop. Omega fragments are dropped by blue, green and red enemies and Rassilon fragments are dropped by black and yellow enemies, while Infinity fragments can be dropped by enemies of any color.
